Subject: Re: Single home directory type for all roles.
Date: Fri, 10 Dec 2004 09:09:33 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <41B9AE1D.1020305@redhat.com> (raw)

Ok I succumb. I will not fight the battle any longer, but I believe
that average people will not user roles because it
is too difficult. I will not build tools that will automatically
relabel the file system since these will be prone
to errors. People will run users in the default role of the system,
whether we default it to user_r with user_canbe_sysadm,
or default to staff.
I believe that the only people who will use roles as they are currently
constituted are security people.
